Procurement Demand Capturing

摘要

Dynamic routing of a procurement request from a single point of entry to a downstream repository is provided based on intelligence data analytics at the point of entry. The point of entry functions as a front end to receive, process, and route all procurement requests, with the back end to support the routed request. Request information is entered at the front end, with the single point of entry processing the request through appropriate channels in the procurement process.
